Burrows told SunSport: “Phil was an extremely special guy and we miss him every single day.

“Ten years on, there is definitely a poignancy that two of his former clubs meet in a cup final so close to the anniversary of his sad passing. Motherwell are delighted to take part in
anything which not only remembers Phil but also raises money and awareness for a very worthwhile charity and worthwhile cause. We are happy to help.”

SPFL chief executive Neil Doncaster said: “It’s fitting that Motherwell and Celtic plan on marking their appearance in the Betfred Cup final by paying tribute to a player who represented both clubs with such distinction.”
